Calm after the holidays

Things here have been pretty quiet since returning from the holidays which has been a nice change of pace. We've had the chance to visit with some friends and are falling into a some what of a routine. FINALLY! For those of you reading this who have kids and are thinking what routine, I know it's just a temporary routine but still, I'll take it. :-)
Carter has been eating baby food almost every night. I say eating but in all honest his mouth becomes like Fort Knox when the spoon and food come out but we at least try. I bought a baby food maker with the intention of making all of his food but... that is alot of work so I am making about 50% of it now and the rest is organic Gerber baby food. Tom asked which he likes better I can't tell cause he's always Fort Knox! I do have to comment though that I never realized how bland baby food from the store is. I used to like the fruit but now I think it is pretty gross.
Carter still isn't rolling over or really showing much ambition too but he much to his dismay still gets tummy time every day.
I have posted some pictures of our little man and one of "the boys" see caption under picture. After looking at pictures from our last blog update it struck me that I think Carter's physical appearance has changed alot. Getting cuter by the minute if you ask me... but I'm the mom so I'm slightly bias. :-)

Almost sitting up by himself!
Playing.. or pondering about some of his favorite toys!

Eating avocado or I should say the spoon.

Spiked hairdo after my bath. I love this picture, he looks so big

"The Boys" Tom, Carter, Mark (the dad) and Joshua during a recent visit to the Herter's. Carter is about 6 weeks older than Joshua and looks huge next to him in this picture!
And finally a video of Carter and baby food!
